  ABSTRACT  
 
Biotin-dependent multifunctional enzymes carry out metabolically important carboxyl group transfer reactions and are potential targets for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes. These enzymes use a tethered biotin cofactor to carry an activated carboxyl group between distantly spaced active sites. The mechanism of this transfer has remained poorly understood. Here we report the complete structure of pyruvate carboxylase at 2.0 angstroms resolution, which shows its domain arrangement. The structure, when combined with mutagenic analysis, shows that intermediate transfer occurs between active sites on separate polypeptide chains. In addition, domain rearrangements associated with activator binding decrease the distance between active-site pairs, providing a mechanism for allosteric activation. This description provides insight into the function of biotin-dependent enzymes and presents a new paradigm for multifunctional enzyme catalysis.

Figure 1.
Fig. 1. (A) Schematic drawing of the primary structure arrangement for the multidomain PC from R. etli. The allosteric domain, indicated with asterisks, includes residues 471 to 489 and 1002 to 1073. (B) The structure of the R. etli PC monomer A. The BC,CT, BCCP, and allosteric domains are colored blue, yellow, red, and green, respectively. The chemical reactions catalyzed in the individual domains are illustrated below the corresponding domain structure. ADP, adenosine diphosphate; P[i], inorganic phosphate.
Figure 2.
Fig. 2. (A) The ATP binding site. The revised definition of the precise ATP binding site reveals several interacting residues not previously noted in the structure of the BC subunit from ACC. In particular, the interaction of Lys^245 with the -phosphate of ATP is consistent with substrate-labeling studies that suggest that this residue directly interacts with ATP (30). Several previously unrecognized residues, including Glu^283, Glu^297, and Asn^299, are now seen to be important for coordinating the two essential Mg^2+ ions (depicted as green spheres) and ATP binding. (B) The ethyl-CoA binding site. Interactions with the nucleotide portion of ethyl-CoA include residues from both BC subunits and from the allosteric domain. Most notably, Arg^472 of the allosteric domain creates a strong interaction with the 5' -phosphate of ethyl-CoA.
